Australia Day Award for an Outstanding Surveyor

ACS NSW provided a submission to the Australian Honours and Awards Secretariat in 2016 regarding the nomination of Robert Gordon Harrison (Bob), to be considered for an award within the Order of Australia. The submission was successful and Bob has been awarded the OAM on Australia Day 2017.

ACS understands that although there have been a number of surveyors that have received the Order of Australia, this is the first time that this
award has been presented for service to surveying - a real achievement for the profession by a very worthy professional.
